An appealing authentic old "dive" kind of place, with tall 5-seat tables all aronds the room, the bar in the center. Loads of taps as well as a number of bottles. First, contrary to implications by earlier reviewers, Humpyís does offer many of its brews in 4-ounce samples @ $2 per pour. The service is friendly in a down-home sort of way, the staff is knowledgeable about the beer list, and the food is the usual but grub, but well done. Good for a stop if you are in Anchorage.

I was in Anchorage recently and had to stop here to check it out.
Nice ambient sports atmosphere with a great amount of taps ranging from local Anchorage flavors to some PNW brews. The food, I had a reindeer burger, haha, I guess I just ate Prancer, Woops, well it was a good burger. Service was good. Beer wasnít always put in appropriate glassware but I wasnít too annoyed since the place seemed more of a sports bar. Iíd go back, seems it would be a great place for lunch.

In general, a faded alehouse that maybe once was vital to the scene but today just seems tired. The selection was entirely uninteresting, with the stateís top 4-5 breweries entirely unrepresented. No Anchorage, no Midnight Sun, no 49th State, only one Kassikís, a standard. I could get half these beers in Vancouver, and we donít get jack for American micros. Coming here looking for quality will leave you disappointed. Disinterested service and management makes Humpyís a place you can skip, quite frankly.

Humpyís is a great alehouse in downtown Anchorage, with a good kitchen, a breathtaking selection of Alaskan beers on tap and probably the most efficient service Iíve had in America - even with a full bar, surrounding him at 270 degrees, the bartender still spotted my empty glass virtually within seconds of me setting it down. Again and again. Amazing! The place would have got top score on all accounts if it wasnít for the noise (sports were shown on TV screens and people had to talk loud to be heard above the TV noise) and the fact that they only serve beer in one size - pints - which made this a very tough exercise for me. After 6-7 beers I couldnít take any more. Flights or taster sized glasses would have been great for a place with so many beers on tap. Visited: 2014-07-28

We arrived just before the Barleywine festival let out and were able to get a table. Our waiter was great, he spent time answering our questions even though he got flooded by customers. The selection of beer available was amazing, Our friends got food and I did look over the menu, typical pub fair. Great place downtown and close to other great beer stops.

Nice sized bar with an excellent beer selection. Service was very helpful and prompt. They have plenty of locals, which makes it very nice if you donít have time to travel farther out from downtown. They have food items as well, but I did not try anything. Iíll be back to enjoy this place I am sure.
